Thirteen Things that I am currently happy about.


1. The miss is doing so well and is looking so good. Her black eyes are pretty much gone and she doesn't have any other swelling on her head. She looks GREAT!

2. On Friday night, the hubby and I are having a date night and we are going to see the new XMEN movie. I am so excited. Oh, and it's his birthday on Friday too.

3. I should have my research paper for my Psych class done before this week is over, then I will do my final exam and power point presentation next week and then the class is over. YAY!

4. The miss is going to a birthday party on Saturday for her friend, Durin. They are so cute when they play together and so it should be fun. Oh, and hopefully I will get lots of great pictures too.

5. Next weekend, June 2-4, DH and I are going to be going here
Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting
for a couple's retreat that our church is doing. It should be a great weekend and some time to ourselves without the miss, which will be nice. It will be great to spend some time in the Word together as well. The miss will stay with Kate's family and they will spoil her rotten, so I know she will have a great weekend too.

6. My best friend, Kate, will be out here in the middle of June. She will be here until September and I can't wait to see her. Plus, since she is the most awesome photographer ever, I know that I will get some amazing pictures taken by her while she is here.

7. I found out today that one of my newest favorite worship songs, sweetly broken, was actually released on a cd by Vineyard back in March. So hopefully soon, I can purchase that album, because that song is beautiful. You can listen to a snippet of it Here. Also here are the Lyrics.

8. The weather has been so gorgeous lately. Just the right amount of sunshine and the right amount of wind. The birds chirp so beautifully in the morning and there are always birds or squirrels running around our yard. I just love it.

9. Some beautiful bushes with purple flowers have started growing in our front yard and they are so very pretty. What is the best about it, is I didn't have to plant them or anything. They were already here for us. So, I get to enjoy them and didn't have to do any work to put them there.

10. I know I keep talking about it, but I am really enjoying my Beth Moore Bible Study, Living Beyond Yourself. I look forward each day to getting to do it and I look forward to watching the video portions, because she is just incredible and it just speaks to me so much.

11. It's been so much fun working lately on the miss'scrapbook and I am excited to continue finishing pages of it and to soon be done with it. I think I will go up to her first year or year and a half in this particular album. It's been so fun to be all creative and work on it. Plus a lot of the time I get to work on it at Tiffany's house and Tiffany rocks. So, it's fun!

12. I can't wait to take the miss to see the movie, cars. It comes out June 9th, I believe. She loves cars and gets excited when Disney shows a preview of it in the morning. It's so much fun to take her to the movies and to watch her get all excited and react to it. I love watching life through my daughter's eyes.

13. Last, but most importantly, I am happy about the fact that God is so good. He really is. How blessed we all are. :o)
